In a 5K free technique race timed down to tenths of a second, Liz Stephen (Burke Mtn Academy) and Kikkan Randall (APUNSC) tied atop the leaderboard with identical times of 14:48.7. Randall, who had won the last two races convincingly, was the odds-on favorite today. But Stephen, a junior, stepped up and set a fast pace that Randall, starting later, was able to match but not beat. Kristina Strandberg (Subaru Factory Team) was third. Kate Pearson finished fourth, third American, to earn a podium spot as well.
